If It Doesn’t Fit, You Must Acquit (Open Thread)

There was an anti-Zimmerman-verdict demonstration in Houston recently, hosted by the New Black Panthers. One counter-demonstrator pointed out the obvious: If George Zimmerman is a “white hispanic”, then Barack Obama is a “white black”(or, as I like to call him: A “white African-American who identifies as black.”)

If only the media would be consistent in their usage. Is that too much to ask?

“If the head is split, you must acquit.” And so the jury did. This demonstrator also mentions the “stand your ground” concept, which Obama was for before he was against!

Poor Phineas. In a little Ozark town, an apparently falsely accused pooch has been in poochgow for over a year–on death row! Dead dog walking?

The bite doesn’t fit.

That’s what two dog-bite experts claim in new court filings in the contentious case of Phineas, a yellow Labrador retriever condemned to die for biting a girl in Salem, Mo., last summer.

A series of court challenges have so far delayed the dog’s sentence, which was imposed by the town’s mayor in July 2012. The 7-year-old girl, bit on her abdomen, was not seriously injured in the incident, which occurred during a visit to a friend’s house where Phineas was a pet.

But as the months passed — during which the dog was briefly kidnapped from the county animal shelter and then it seemed city officials were hiding the dog from its owners — Phineas’ unresolved fate attracted widespread public interest and led to division within the small town.

Now, two experts working for the dog’s owners said they believe Phineas did not bite the girl at all. They said the oval-shaped wound is too small and the dental pattern inconsistent with Phineas’ teeth. Their findings were included in a filing this week by the attorney for Phineas’ owners asking a Dent County judge to reconsider his opinion upholding the mayor’s ruling. A state appellate court also is expected to consider the matter.

Through the miracle of social media, the experts got the one bit of information required to arrive at their potentially life-saving conclusion. They had only a photograph of the bite mark on the little victim’s torso, but no scale. What to do?

With no photographic measurements of the bite, the trick was finding something else in the photo that could be measured and compared to the teeth marks on the girl`s body.

And that’s when they got the idea to zero in on the ‘zero’ on the girl’s crumpled t-shirt, appealing to Phineas’ 150,000 Facebook followers to help find a duplicate.

“Within 24 hours someone had gone on the internet and figured out what shirt it was,” [Phineas’s attorney Joe] Simon explained. “That was great except the manufacturer no longer sold that shirt so we couldn’t go out and just buy the shirt.”

But then a fan in New Jersey realized her niece had the same shirt, and mailed it to Simon.

“As soon as I got this shirt in the mail I knew there was no way Phineas left this bite because this is just tiny,” he said. …

The written report was prepared by Dr. Kenneth Cohrn, a dentist and expert in dental forensics from Lady Lake, Florida.

It concludes:

“The overall size of the injury suggests a smaller dog may be responsible…. based on the current information available…

I must exclude Phineas as the biter.”

Will justice be done for Phineas? Will Phineas win a reprieve? Will he be saved from the gas chamber and returned to the arms of his loving family?

Let’s hope so. Miracles do happen, after all.

The jury in the Zimmerman case made the right decision; and now, suddenly, the ACLU has changed its tune. First this:

“Last night’s verdict casts serious doubt on whether the legal system truly provides equal protection of the laws to everyone regardless of race or ethnicity,” ACLU Executive Director Anthony Romero said in a statement on July 14, the day after the Florida jury’s verdict. “This case reminds us that it is imperative that the Department of Justice thoroughly examine whether the Martin shooting was a federal civil rights violation or hate crime.”

Now this, after many questioned the ACLU’s departure from their long-standing policy of arguing against double jeopardy:

In an apparent attempt to stem the controversy, a top ACLU official wrote to [white black] Attorney General Eric Holder on Thursday to make clear that the group does not favor a second prosecution of Zimmerman in federal court.

“We are writing to clearly state the ACLU’s position on whether or not the Department of Justice (DOJ) should consider bringing federal civil rights or hate crimes charges as a result of the state court acquittal in the George Zimmerman case,” Laura Murphy, director of the ACLU’s Washington office, wrote.

“The ACLU believes the Double Jeopardy Clause of the Constitution protects someone from being prosecuted in another court for charges arising from the same transaction. A jury found Zimmerman not guilty, and that should be the end of the criminal case,” she wrote.

In a strange twist of fate (?), Zimmerman was given a chance to show the content of his character:

George Zimmerman, who has been in hiding since he was acquitted of murder in the death of Trayvon Martin, emerged to help rescue a family who was trapped in an overturned vehicle, police said today.

Zimmerman was one of two men who came to the aid of a family of four — two parents and two children — trapped inside a blue Ford Explorer SUV that had rolled over after traveling off the highway in Sanford, Fla. at approximately 5:45 p.m. Thursday, the Seminole County Sheriff’s Office said in a statement. …

By the time police arrived, two people – including Zimmerman – had already helped the family get out of the overturned car, the sheriff’s office said. No one was reported to be injured.

Zimmerman was not a witness to the crash and left after speaking with the deputy, police said.

(h/t kittycat77 — It’s very hard to find other coverage of this incident.)

So Zimmerman, in hiding out of fear for his own safety, put his life at risk to help four other people.

No word yet on the racial identities of the members of the family that Zimmerman helped to save.

New open thread. I have to wonder whether the ACLU is actually changing their tune to help Barry out of the hole he’s dug for himself, with his impromptu, racially-charged speech. The inciteful language did what it was intended to do–keep the focus of the media and the public off the IRS scandal and the other scandals endemic in the Obama administration. Mission accomplished. So now Plan B. Backtrack to help Barry.

Snatching defeat from the jaws of victory. Ensuring a split in the Republican base before next year’s crucial election in which we have our last best chance to save our Republic from socialism. INSULTING Americans. Calling us, in effect, STUPID. Too stupid to know what’s good for us (when in reality it’s their donors they’re looking out for). We need to be “educated”. Even worse, ensuring that the presidency stays in the hands of DemoncRATS. God forbid–Hillary Clinton:

“House Leaders to Educate Voters About Immigration: ‘Become America’

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) will lead a tour of House leaders next week aimed at educating Americans, and each other, about the history and importance of immigration to the United States. The tour, dubbed the “Become America” tour, will feature events and speeches aimed at overcoming opposition to the passage of comprehensive immigration reform, which has stumbled amidst opposition from conservatives.

“The lawmakers will attend events on Ellis Island and at the Museum of Jewish Heritage and the African Burial Ground National Monument, according to an itinerary of the trip,” Politico reported late Wednesday evening. “Leaders will speak at a naturalization ceremony, and the group will also have a breakfast meeting at Gracie Mansion with New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg, a key advocate of immigration reform.” [Earth to RINOs: Bloomberg is NOT your friend. Danger, danger, Will Cantor!] …

The “Become America” tour, by contrast, will be less about listening to voters and more about educating them, since Republican leaders are convinced that the “nativist” faction within their party is the reason they cannot pass immigration reform.

The trip is being coordinated by the non-profit Faith & Politics Institute, and will include members of both parties, such as Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), a persistent advocate of amnesty for illegal immigrants.[Earth to RINOs: Gutierrez is NOT your friend. He’s an ILLINOIS SOCIALIST, like Obama. A supporter of the RACIST LA RAZA, too.] …

Officially, the “Become America” tour is meant to improve relations among the members of Congress who attend. But given the backdrop of pending immigration legislation, it is also clearly aimed at enabling those members to campaign for passage of a bill–any bill–that satisfies President Barack Obama’s demands. …

In June, only 6% of Americans said that immigration was the most important issue facing the country …”

Good point. I was so angry after reading that story. It’s 2008 all over again. We are screwed. It’s not a question of WHETHER they will cave in and give Barry all he wants, it’s just a question of how and when. The more that happens like this, the more I suspect (as we feared in 2008) that we are sold out. It’s over. Done deal. There IS no representative republic known as the USA anymore. For whatever reason, they are selling us all out. Barry is the ruler. Just as in 2008, when he didn’t bother to return to DC after the fiscal crash. He was SO SUPREMELY SURE that he WOULD win. And he did. I wonder why.

Sadly, I completely concur. This has been my suspicion since the run in 07 (he, literally, appeared out of nowhere). Suspicion was solidified by his win and ’08 and confirmed, without doubt after Romney oh-so obviously took the fall during debates # 2 & 3 after winning # 1 handily (can’t be TOO obvious, now) his “re-election” (snicker).

Of course, his winning the Nobel Peace Prize after merely being elected was a huge red flag not to mention a hoot and a half.

The trip is being coordinated by the non-profit Faith & Politics Institute, and will include members of both parties, such as Rep. Luis Gutierrez (D-IL), a persistent advocate of amnesty for illegal immigrants. [Earth to RINOs: Gutierrez is NOT your friend. He’s an ILLINOIS SOCIALIST, like Obama. A supporter of the RACIST LA RAZA, too.] …

La Raza In Line To Pocket Reform-Bill Slush Funds

07/17/2013

But buried deep within the immigration bill are hidden multimillion-dollar slush funds for left-wing nonprofit groups to provide services to the estimated 11 million illegal immigrants now in the U.S.

Well, of course. We couldn’t have seen that one coming, could we? Obama is bound and determined to make us a third world country and THIS is how it’s done in third world countries. The connected elite get the spoils of other people’s money. No wonder La Raza is pushing SO HARD for this reform. You wouldn’t actually believe that ANY OF THESE PEOPLE actually feel the empathy they feign. Nope. What’s in it for me? That’s their guiding principle. Couple that with their firm self-delusion that it’s DESERVED because of the victimization their ancestors experienced, and we have a recipe for disaster (if not genocide, eventually). The illegals will have “rights” that we can’t even dream about. Did Mr. VanderSloot, when targeted by the IRS for his politics, have his legal bills paid for by the taxpayers? Or even by the IRS when they were proved wrong? Of course not. But We the People will provide La Raza lawyers for ILLEGALS who expect to be “more equal” than the rest of us. I would say the PRICE of illegally breaking into our country, stealing our jobs and social welfare benefits, should AT LEAST BE that they figure out for themselves how to avail themselves of amnesty. Oh, it’s so infuriating.

This time around, they want to ENSURE that the illegals who get amnesty EVENTUALLY do go on to become citizens. These community organizers will SEE TO IT, because the last group did NOT go on to citizenship. They want the VOTES. They want to have these people overseen by activists who will shove them into citizenship, whether they want it or not. Here’s the Uncle Omar clause:

“… Another provision would protect aliens who have been “ordered excluded, deported or removed” from the country. Such aliens, under the bill, “may apply for registered provisional status,” and, by this one step, avoid removal. …”

Isn’t his case postponed until December? Hopefully (for him), by then his “nephew” Barry will have signed his amnesty into law.

Thank you Rosemary, much appreciated. Actually I had posted on the last thread yesterday how I haven’t been too well health wise. They put in one of those blankety, blank, smart meters at my house about six months ago and a prior medical condition I had before they put it in seems too be getting 10 times worse since then. I have complained to the electric co. and asked for my old meter back and they have refused but I’m still fighting with them over it…it’s not over, especially since it’s affecting my health. Needles too say I have felt like total c r a p for the last six months. I put in my 10 hr’s of work then I crash. So as you can tell for the last six month’s I’m here only on good day’s. I miss you all and the blog, the updates, terribly when I’m not here 😦

I wonder if there’s a way to shield yourself from the magnetic field put off by that smart meter? That’s the only thing I can think that might be affecting you–a magnetic field. Any way to check? Gordo, do you have any ideas?

House Majority Leader Eric Cantor (R-VA) will lead a tour of House leaders next week aimed at educating Americans, and each other, about the history and importance of immigration to the United States

Educating Americans on the importance of immigration? Who’s objecting to immigration? Legal immigration, that is. The opposition to this bill objects to rewarding the illegal behavior of people who wantonly dismiss and disrespect the laws of this country. That’s not immigration; it’s criminal entrance into a sovereign state to which they do not belong by legal permission, birth or naturalized citizenship. It’s theft of Americans’ safety, resources, and Rule of Law. I don’t think it’s We, the People who need an education.

There is no inherit or human right to steal or to break the law just because you can or think you are entitled to break due some mitigating circumstance in your life. If someone robbed a bank because his children were hungry, would he be allowed to keep the money and charges dismissed because he was poor and just wanted to improve his circumstances? Of course not. There are legitimate ways for him to obtain help for his family. He would spend a very long time counting the bars on his cell. But when it’s people flooding over the border to steal from us, hey, it’s compassionate to let them continue sucking off the taxpayer. But…but…think of the children brought here by no fault of their own! Sorry, no cigar. Parents are responsible for how their behavior may effect their children. The bank robber’s children will spend many years without their father and will not be allowed to keep the money. Parents are responsible for teaching their children right from wrong. If they don’t know the difference, it’s the job of the federal government to enforce laws and hold parents responsible for risking their children’s safety and for correcting the wrong done to the children by the parents–by not rewarding it. If parents are not held responsible for bad parenting, then they’re encouraged to continue the behavior because there are no real consequences for them or for the children they should protect from adverse consequences brought on by their own decisions. Equal justice. There is no such thing as social justice.

The “Become America” tour, by contrast, will be less about listening to voters and more about educating them, since Republican leaders are convinced that the “nativist” faction within their party is the reason they cannot pass immigration reform.

Less about listening to voters? No surprise there. They’ve been deaf and dumber than a plank for so long, how-to instructions must be the first item in the Congressional handbook. Geez. It’s not ‘nativist’ to demand the Rule of Law be upheld by the very central government charged with its enforcement. It’s not ‘nativist’ for people to demand the officials charged with protecting our borders know and recognize right from wrong. It’s not ‘nativist’ for people to refuse to give approval for rewarding bad behavior, especially when there is no provision in this bill to never repeat this same scenario again and again as the government’s reward system simply invites others to follow in the footsteps of previous criminals. There is nothing in this bill that will stop illegals from continuing to receive benefits paid for by the taxpayer, no matter what the political class tells us. The Won will simply wave his Executive Order book like a magic wand and continue to chum the water with free education, housing, food and money for them, because, we’ll be told, it’s the compassionate thing to do, ya know, and Congress will do nothing about it. We know this from previous behavior and his recent dismissal of the law in obamacare that people must prove need to receive certain healthcare benefits.

There is nothing compassionate about encouraging people to do wrong, then rewarding it. Still, the illegal squatters who will avail themselves of legality will be few. It won’t stop people from coming over or under the border and it won’t force the ones here already to declare themselves for legal status. The majority here have no desire or intention to become citizens. They send billions of dollars back to Mexico every year to their families. We’re an multi-billion-dollars-a-year industry for Mexico. It’s no wonder why the Mexican government squawks every time we talk about securing the border. They’re reaping huge financial benefits off the backs of American citizens in the form of more money circulating in their economy they can tax–money, I might add, taken out of our economy. The vast majority of illegal immigrants do not want to pay taxes and certainly won’t volunteer to pay. They don’t plan to stay permanently or to integrate into American society. They have no reason to come out of the ‘shadows’. Why should they? They can steal from law abiding citizens…with the blessings and aid of our own government.

And, this does not even address the people coming over our border for nefarious reasons and with the intent to cause severe harm to the U.S.

Educate us, my butt. Their arrogant supposition that we’re too stupid to understand is superceded by their underestimation of the American people to recognize a scam when we see it.

“Educate us, my butt. Their arrogant supposition that we’re too stupid to understand is superceded by their underestimation of the American people to recognize a scam when we see it.”

I’d like to say, what’s wrong with being a nativist? (Of course, it all depends upon one’s definition of nativist.) What are Mexicans if not nativist? Do they acculturate? How about Muslims in America? What country’s citizens are not nativists? Actually, if you accept the political science definition, then the USA is the LEAST nativist country on Earth, having been always traditionally welcoming of immigrants, and we still are–so long as they’re LEGAL immigrants.

I’d like to say, what’s wrong with being a nativist? (Of course, it all depends upon one’s definition of nativist.)

You’re right. It depends on the definition they’re applying. I took their use of the word to mean that the ‘nativists’ of their party were against any immigration…just a bunch of rednecks who hate or fear anyone who doesn’t look like them. It seemed to me the Republicans are co-opting the left’s narrative to try to strong arm the opposition within their own party into fearing being called names. Apparently, it never occurred to them that the opposition may be operating from the morals and principles of right and wrong, not fear or hate.

I don’t know why I should be, but I am constantly amazed at the rank idiocy of the Republicans. They are one of only two things: dumb as doorknobs and therefore extremely susceptible to being manipulated by the Democrat-Progressive machine or they’re complicit/compromised. I tend to lean toward the latter.

This issue is a goldmine for Republicans, if they’d just pick up their shovel and go to work. The majority of Americans across the board oppose rewarding and encouraging illegal immigration and are disgusted with the federal government’s lack of enforcement. If they wanted to do something right and productive, they would be out on the stump explaining how this bill and decades of federal policies are harming all Americans, but none have suffered more than the black community and that if this bill is passed, the decimation of the black community will be worse. And, they should point out that they will not continue to play along to get along, especially when Americans will be harmed and that Americans and legal immigrants are, after all, their first priority. I could go on with how they could turn the tables, but I’m sure you get my drift. It’s just common sense.

Sadly, Republicans, like Democrats, will never do that because they’re invested in their own power and not in the people. I did see where a few new guys, like Cruz, spoke at a rally put on by a black business group against the bill. Then, on cue, the official dismissals and name calling of all involved commenced. The whole bunch is predictable, if nothing else.

The RINOs have co-opted the progressives’ language and tactics for a long time. That’s why they Alinsky us and call us “birthers”. I think they’re “complicit/compromised,” too. ALL Americans, including most “persons of color”, oppose amnesty for illegal aliens. It IS a gold mine for the Republicans to make inroads into, especially, the black “community” as well as UNION households, because both oppose giving special treatment to ILLEGAL ALIENS, costing citizens JOBS. Under Obamacare, and amnesty, the illegals WILL BE FAVORED. THEY are the ones who will get the FULL-TIME jobs (because they’re exempt from Obamacare and so their bosses won’t have to pay a fine if they’re not offered health insurance), so CITIZENS will either not be hired OR their hours will be cut to less than 30 per week. No jobs or only part-time jobs for citizens and full-time jobs in large companies for amnestied illegals.

I think it happened last Thursday Wednesday, according to another story. Isn’t it interesting that the lamestream didn’t bother to report it? That wasn’t interesting enough news to share, about such a newsworthy person. Wouldn’t want to interfere with “Reverend” Sharpton’s and Barry’s meme, would they? Even this morning, after you tipped us to the story, I did searches using Zimmerman’s name, crash, saved, fire extinguisher, all kinds of combos. NOTHING turned up, not EVEN the story you found from ABC! It’s almost as if they don’t want the country to know what a hero he is. Imagine that! It’s disgusting how they slant the “news”. Everything’s upside down and ass-backwards (sorry). The thug is the good guy and vice versa. They NEVER let the truth or the facts get in the way of whatever narrative they and their commie pals want to push.

With regard to the first headline: I have visions of the Obama administration using our tax dollars to buy homes in “white” neighborhoods and then giving them to “persons of color.” I truly do think they would do this, if they could get away with it. So far, they’ve gotten away with so much. Who would object among the cowering RINOs? They would FEAR being called racists who want to continue segregation.

Listen to Levin’s take on this. He points out how it’s “Marxist” and “communism”. But he elaborates. And, yes, they want to USE OUR MONEY to “block bust”. I want to live, as Levin suggests, in Martha’s Vineyard! “It’s here. Tyranny is here, and it’s spreading.”

They want to invade schools and tear them down whilst stealing our children’s right to childhood. They will not be satisfied until our entire country is one big ghetto and kids are spitting on their parents.

Levin is right; we’ve already tried this with Fanny Mae and Freddie Mac. Social Engineering Disaster, part 2.

Still, I thought Moochelle thought blacks should segregate from the white population, because the whites were the cause of all their problems. It’s been a long time since I’ve read her senior paper, but seems to me, if I recall correctly, that was her premise. The results she got back from the black graduates she contacted didn’t support her premise.

I can assure you, however, those successful respondents to Michelle’s questionnaire, and those like them, will not be happy any longer if the government starts moving the inner city into their neighborhood. Go ahead, do it. This idiocy will unite people who may have thought themselves on opposite sides of the paradigm. Blacks who have achieved the success of either leaving behind the dead-end lifestyle of dependency on the government, or knew better than to join it, will realize the right/left model is bunk. They’ll know their white neighbors aren’t a bunch of racists, even if they had continued to support the Democrat-Progressive tickets and ideas. White progressive-liberals will be horrified when Jamika and her 8 kids by 8 different baby daddies, who come and go at all hours with all the commotion that goes with it, moves in next door and the result isn’t very uplifting. Even worse will be when the white liberal is forced to sell his property for well below market price to the government so Jamika’s cousin can have it…for family unity, of course. And they should all be furious. What’s theirs is theirs. They earned it. They have the right to not live in an inner city project.

You don’t improve the conditions of the dependent by simply moving the location where they live in bondage. The people have to change, then seek their own liberty and independence. Immutable Law of Human Existence: No matter where you go, you have to take yourself with you. Change yourself, if you want to change the circumstances of your existence.

As much as I don’t cherish the idea, at times, I’ve thought our best hope is for the whole shebang to just unravel and for our wannabe gods to make their final endgame play. It’s going to happen eventually anyway. Then, we will have to fight to the death against the framework in place to replace the Constitution and the Rule of Law with some version of the same old, same old that’s never worked before, as well as against the foreign and domestic mercenaries, and against the foreign countries that will see their chance to claim a piece of the pie. The ‘enemy of my enemy is my friend’ will turn out to not be anybody’s friend, but in it for their own gain. Nobody in their right mind wants to go through that, but we may as well be prepared mentally and physically. Parse their every word. They’re slick and they count on fear, hunger and exhaustion as their main weapon to secure that Americans will give up their essential liberties in exchange for safety. We have no help now from our elected public servants, nor will we. I suspect 99% of them are compromised in one way or another, and none who are brave enough to band together, regardless of party, admit their mistakes, expose the blackmail and tell the truth to the American public. I bet we could gather enough former special forces to protect them and their families, if our public servants were brave enough, but they’re not. I imagine they all think they’ll get a seat at the new table. How wrong they are. History. Past behavior is the best predictor of future behavior.

There will be no safety for them or for us in the planned new world. Safety will be an illusion that will be defined by silence and obedience. There is no safety that does not reside in man’s unalienable right to be free and in a government that is chained down from fomenting mischief. Government’s primary charge and function must be, first and foremost, to protect those unalienable rights. Hang onto the Constitution with your life, even if you believe there are changes that eventually need to be made. Never make changes during or immediately after a crisis. Never. At least two years should pass, maybe more, if it takes some time to restore the legitimate Constitutional Rule of Law.

I’m in a strange mood this morning. I hate to sound so dire, so let me leave you with a final thought. It’s not merely my belief that we will prevail, I know we will. There is no job too big for God. As long as we remain firmly on His side and faithful to His promise that we are blessed by Him with free will and that no man can place himself above God’s will or design, He will bring us through this. It won’t be easy, but we will win. Even people who do not believe in God can embrace the core premise of this. It’s Natural Law or Nature’s Law. Freedom is man’s natural birthright. Only man enslaves other men. It’s not of nature’s design.

For a little encouragement read Psalm 92: 6-9.

And remember that the Will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you.

With the ACLU’s about face in mind, I wondered whether this really happened or not. Is this an attempt to rehabilitate Zimmerman’s image in the public eye? A way to provide reparations to the man falsely accused and persecuted? Replace one false image of Zimmerman, created by the complicit progressive media, with another image (closer to the truth–that he’s a decent man)? And in so doing, also give a plausible “out” to Holder and Obama who, as usual, shot off his mouth and dug himself a hole? I’m just sayin’. btw, I saw on Citizen Wells’s a link to a UK story that shows the family was white.

What the media never TOLD YOU. In Cobb County, Georgia a few days
after the Zimmerman-Martin case, a white Marine, unarmed, not in uniform, the veteran of two tours in the Middle East was attacked & beaten to death in a parking lot by 4 BLACK MEN. Did you hear
anything about that? Did Sharpton or Jackson or Obama have any comment about the vicious crimes committed by THEIR people.
Check it out!!

Of course they didn’t tell us. We have to go to the UK media for the truth. He’s not the only one. Gateway Pundit had a story about two guys who were attacked and they had a Zimmerman bumper sticker on their cars.

If I hear how it all turns out, I’ll let y’all know. I suspect that this mayor and sheriff will soon run up against “reelection time” and all will be worked out. Imagine a dog having so many Facebook “friends”.

Hear ye! Hea Ye!
“The army of “patient navigators”are coming! The army of “patient navigators” are coming!

…These organizers will be guided by the new Federal Data Hub, which will give them access to reams of personal information compiled by federal agencies ranging from the IRS to the Department of Defense and the Veterans Administration. “The federal government is planning to quietly enact what could be the largest consolidation of personal data in the history of the republic,” Paul Howard of the Manhattan Institute and Stephen T. Parente, a University of Minnesota finance professor, wrote in USA Today.

They will be employed by the descendants of ACORN, too. More people for Barry’s “civilian army”. Let’s not forget how ACORN got hold of lists that they weren’t allowed to have and used them for political purposes. What else can they do, when they have hold of ALL YOUR PERSONAL DATA? Does anyone truly believe that these people will have the morals and ethics to resist misusing that data?

I had read about these “patient navigators” and was planning a post about the subject. Maybe Fund’s done the work for me. It’s just another layer of bureaucracy. Ever notice how the progressives object to privatization of government work except when it lines the pockets of THEIR peeps? Why are they adding another layer of bureaucracy? Why would these people NOT be government employees but instead work for community activist organizations?

We currently suffer identity theft when clerks at stores take information off credit cards. Who believes for an instant, after Edward Snowden, that all these people will be carefully screened to ensure that they don’t steal our information and that they will also be honorable enough not to misuse it to help their own political allies?

“… Politico reports they are likely to include Planned Parenthood, senior-citizen advocacy organizations, and churches. …”

Of course Politico reports that lie! They are LIKELY to be ex-ACORN “community organizations” and/or associated with SEIU International. Knowing Obama, who could possibly think otherwise?

“… This spring, House Oversight and Government Reform Committee lawyers were also told by HHS that, despite the fact that navigators will have access to sensitive data such as Social Security numbers and tax returns, there will be no criminal background checks required for them. Indeed, they won’t even have to have high-school diplomas. …”

I’m reading the article as I write this comment. I predicted above exactly what Fund reports is happening. NO BACKGROUND CHECKS and not even a high school diploma!!! So who’s going to get these jobs? OBAMA’S PEEPS, that’s who. Illiterate criminals, at worst. Incompetents, at best.

Need we say or guess how they will identify themselves, racially speaking? (And I say that ONLY to point out that Obama has proved himself adept at rewarding reparations to “his people,” as Eric Holder likes to call them. See Obamaphones, reparations for “black farmers”, etc. That’s all this and every other Obama program is designed to do–fundamentally transform America by a racial spoils system to set things right, in his own mind. That is, exact revenge via redistribution and reparations. Make a “good ole boy network” as bad as the traditional one, only this one made up of his “people of color”, as he defines them.)

Everything Fund is saying is what I’d planned to say in my post, when I read about these people who are being hired to “counsel” us about Obamacare. TY John Fund. (He always says it better and more tactfully than I would, anyway.) Did you see the proposed salary for these people? $20 to $48 an hour and this only after taking a 20-30 hour ONLINE course!!! (How to ensure the person taking the course is the one getting the job?) Surely the $48 an hour will be for their “supervisors” and the minions will get $20. Even so, that’s about $40 grand a year. Not bad for people who may be functionally illiterate and don’t even have high school diplomas.

“… If people only knew about this Data Hub program, it would touch off a huge public outcry.”

Papoose. I read that article earlier and was saving it for a post. I was heartened to see that, especially after the behavior we saw in Boston, when the jack-booted thugs treated their citizens as if THEY were perps and not the people these guys supposedly “protect and serve”.

“… “It’s just got everything for a good mystery. It’s cryptic. It’s exotic. The timing is off. It’s inconsistent. It’s inconsiderate. It’s got all those great things. It’s from far away, and it smells bad, and people get interested.” …”

Laughter is undoubtedly the best medicine for your health. It keeps you fit & healthy. Several studies proved that laughter protects you from heart attack. After a good laugh, you feel much more relaxed & calm. It recharges your energy & enables you to be more productive & stay focused. It also helps in reducing your stress & thus makes you feel better.

If a group of United States citizens trekked to another country, formed an organization called “The Race,” which demanded open borders, unfettered immigration and citizenship, billions of dollars for bilingual education, health care, housing, job and wage guarantees, and anti-discrimination protection, they would likely soon be jailed or deported in a display of righteous sovereign indignation. But the National Council of La Raza engages in all these activities in the United States, and it receives taxpayer dollars to help promote its radical views.

RAILA ODINGA gets a SHOCK as his passport renewal is REJECTED by the Government – NSIS orders

Wednesday June 27, 2013 – The Kenyan DAILY POST has learnt that former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga’s passport renewal was rejected by immigration officials on Tuesday, after the National Security Intelligence Services (NSIS) officials ordered him to wait for a few weeks to investigate his recent activities outside the country.

The NSIS officials who were accompanied by senior immigration officials gave Raila Odinga 3 weeks to investigate his recent activities when he toured the United States early this month.

The officials told Raila that he had to wait for a few weeks for the required report to be submitted to the Immigration Department so that his passport can be renewed.

The former PM had gone to Nyayo House in Nairobi on Tuesday to renew his passport after he lost some critical documents in Monday’s night burglary incident at his offices in Raila Odinga Centre in Upper Hill.

Here’s an update to the above Odinga passport drama. Raila Odinga, has been offered millions of dollars by United States and Britain to start an “Egyptian Style Revolution” in Kenya.

REVEALED: RAILA has been offered MILLIONS to start a REVOLUTION against UHURU/ RUTO

The Kenyan DAILY POST Politics 04:33

Saturday July 20, 2013 – Former Prime Minister, Raila Odinga, has been offered millions of dollars by United States and Britain to start an “Egyptian Style Revolution” in Kenya, the Kenyan DAILY POST can now report.

According to police sources, detectives from the National Security Intelligence Service (NSIS) are investigating an account believed to be of former Prime Minister‘s aide Eliud Owalo which has been stashed with hundreds of millions of shillings from suspicious Foreign Embassies through a Nairobi law firm under the guise of legal fees for non-existent legal cases.

Early this week, Owalo was summoned by Criminal Investigations Department (CID) after reports emerged that he was planning a demonstration in Nairobi to oust President Uhuru Kenyatta and his Deputy William Ruto

Owalo, through a Nairobi Law Firm account has received hundreds of thousands of dollars from abroad disguised as proceeds of legal transactions which is later channeled to political heavy weights within CORD because records show that it is withdrawn immediately it hits the accounts. The money then disappears and detectives believe that it is “washed” in the local Kenyan market and people within CORD posses and stash it in cash.

The money is believed to be from US and Britain Governments thorough proxies like NGOs who have a Luke Warm relationship with the new Jubilee administration.

Imagine that! “proxies like NGOs” Would those be like the NGOs that SAD worked for? Or Geithner’s dad? Well, it would be tough to persuade Odinga to try to overthrow Kenyatta. It must stick in Barry’s craw that even after all his sacrificing (campaigning for his thug cousin), Odinga LOST. Nice to have a cousin with the wherewithal to use other people’s money to give you a second bite at the apple.

It was Oginga Odinga, Raila’s father that was a part to the overthrow of Old man Kenyatta, and Raila took part in the 1982 attempted coup, so don’t put nuthin past the likes of Raila and his cousins . So funny that Obama just couldn’t make it to Nairobi kenya on his big trip….supposedly cause Kenyatta is facing some charges with the international criminal court( of course the charges are for the same stuff the likes of Raila’s thugs did back in the 2o08 election . It’s Raila that should be facing criminal charges.

Papoose, my thought’s? he was born and bred for what he is doing too this country. Clearly the Lord of the Fly’s is a Muslim brotherhood “brother”. Many of the “goal’s” of the Communist’s are exactly the same as the brotherhood…. meeting up with Ayer’s was no “coincidence”.

This is what Raila/Owalo has been accused of (Owalo is Raila’s Prime Minister’s Campaign Secretariat)

Snip ~

(Raila’s) Cord said the allegations against Mr Owalo include: That Mr Owalo is conducting secret meetings and organising youth around the country, in major towns and slums for purposes of fomenting an uprising or revolt against the Jubilee Government; That Mr Owalo is organising diplomats, foreign embassies, clergy and the civil society to rise up and oppose the Jubilee Government by causing disaffection; That all this Mr Owalo is doing to mimic an Egyptian style revolution or uprising also part of what was called the Arab spring; That Mr Owalo has received millions of shillings from foreign embassies through a Nairobi Law firm in the guise of proceeds of legal transaction but which will be used to further the above objectives.

Now who doe’s that sound like? Holding a country as hostage with fear. Holding one’s own Gov erment in fear?

Remember before he announced he was going to run, all the information we were able too find on the web regarding The Lord of the Fly’s? When the media was still “looking” into his background? as were we, because people like us love our Country, and saw the man had NO background and we were concerned over that FACT!

And “as soon” as he announced he was going too run everything started disappearing from the web and the media went silent on his background? It was “official” then. He had power and he knew it. The media let him slide because they thought honestly with his lack of experience Hillary was going to win regardless.

What the media and the “higher power’s” did not expect too happen…did. He, the foreign money that he received, the media socializing/organizing, Soro’s and Buffet’s help, ect. and then the 2008 CRASH…THAT was no accident, he did win. The second round was “s t o l e n” and I think the higher powers knew it, (still not a word regarding Ohio) but if the powers knew another financial crash were too happen with the fly man already putting US facing bankruptcy (where he put us for this reason) he had them buy the ba!!’s.

….holding the higher powers, the media, WTP h o s t a g e, as the transformation take’s place. The M/B and the C ommunist’s have us right where they want us….I also believe this is the plan of the U…N and their NWO. One reason why the LOF has succeeded in how far he has been able to take his “transformation”.

My other comment is still in moderation…but I wanted to post this so we have it all documented together.

Raila, CORD Governors to Attend Summit in Irving, Texas

Monday, July 22, 2013

Former Kenya’s Prime Minister, Raila Odinga is set to lead a powerful team of recently elected CORD governors to a Bi-National Kenyan Governors Summit to be held in Dallas, Texas later this week.

It will run between July 27-28 2013.

Briefing the press from Dallas, Texas, Sam Osamba, one of the organisers said the objectives of the summit were among other; introduce to the newly elected governors best practices techniques in handling challenges in devolved governments, learn best practices, concepts and tools for Public FinanceManagement, Legal and Institutional framework conducive for Foreign DirectInvestment and Economic development through domestic and foreign capital flows.

Whether Mr. Odinga [Raila Odinga] has ordered his men to commit murder and arson is unclear. But his own background does not exactly suggest enthusiasm for democracy and the rule of law. Mr. Odinga’s father, Oginga Odinga, led the Communist opposition during the Cold War and Raila Odinga was educated in Communist East Germany.

(snip)

In August 2006, Mr. Obama visited Kenya and spoke in support of Mr. Odinga’s candidacy at rallies in Nairobi. The Web site Atlas Shrugs has even posted a photograph of the two men side by side. More recently, Mr. Odinga says that Mr. Obama interrupted his campaigning in New Hampshire to have a telephone conversation with his African cousin about the constitutional crisis in Kenya.

What should Americans make of Mr. Obama’s Kenyan connection? If he has been putting tribal or family considerations above America’s national interest by supporting Mr. Odinga’s anti-Western candidacy, it raises serious questions about his judgement.

At the time of his visit in 2006, President Kibaki’s spokesman complained that Mr. Obama was behaving like a “stooge” of Mr. Odinga — which was at best undignified for a visiting American senator, and at worst unwarranted interference in the internal politics of another country.

Well , the whole time I’m reading what you posted Leza, I’m thinking UN,good governance and sustainable living…Agenda 21, …then I see you say it’s a UN thing. Yeah, youth/education/our children, all used to fall under the commie/socialist titles,now we got the UN to thank for taking over their intitiatives.!!!!

Exactly Alfy. We have done so much research into all this we figured out what was going on along time ago. Exactly why people like you, I and everyone else here will never give up trying to inform the “clueless”.

A photo from the Houston pro-Zimmerman counter-rally of the NBPP anti-Zimmerman rally picked up by the AP shows a woman holding a sign that read, “Racist & Proud.”

(New York Daily News – AP)

That looked incongruent with the other reports from the pro-Zimmerman side. The Houston Chronicle identified her as Renee Vaughan:

‘One woman in the Zimmerman group held a sign that said, “We’re racist & proud.”

Austin resident Renee Vaughan echoed the sign’s ugly sentiments by yelling, “We’re racist. We’re proud. We’re better because we’re white,” at the Martin group as they passed, according to the Chronicle.’

Scanning the internet we found that a “Renee Vaughn” from Austin worked for a far left environmental group, the Texas Campaign for the Environment. …”

So a simple search turned up the truth, but the lamestream doesn’t bother to fact check, ESPECIALLY when the “STORY” fits their preferred narrative. Blood on their hands (of all the innocent people who were attacked for supporting Zimmerman). Surprise! When busted, Ms. Renee Vaughn PRETENDS that she was being “sarcastic” in impersonating those she presumed to be at the rally who WERE racists. Get it? I wonder if white supremacists could use that excuse when busted? Or KKK members? Just say, “Hey, it’s parody. We were being sarcastic.”

“… I did a really stupid thing this weekend, and I apologize with all of my being. No matter who I agree or disagree with, I don’t want to foment hate. I my haste, I did exactly that. Had I thought before I put a bad message out to the world, I wouldn’t have hurt, angered and embarrassed so many people. I pray for forgiveness, and to never, ever be that stupid again. Those who know me know that I want a better world for everyone. I hope you can forgive me, World. …”

Uh, she’s only apologizing for embarrassing her progressive, leftist, environmentalist bosses and colleagues. I see no apology for her dirty tricks or the mindset that leads the left to do such things over and over again. Do you? Does it seem to you as if she’s apologizing to the “victims” of racism who might have been hurt by her hateful sign INSTEAD OF to the people she falsely and deliberately tried to cast as racists because she disagrees with them politically? Is she apologizing for and disavowing her FALSE FLAG TACTICS? I don’t see it.

Don’t you love Omarosa’s comparison of her brother’s death to Trayvon’s? There’s NO comparison except that she also calls the shooter “white” who, from his name (Marco Cardenas), is probably hispanic and probably of Western Hemisphere aboriginal descent, too, and so multi-racial. Big huge honking difference–the killer was convicted (justifiably so) and sentenced to prison. I do like Abigail Thernstrom’s voice of reason:

“… In fact, if the president had a son, he would have been born to extraordinary privilege and raised with all the advantages of two very affluent and highly educated parents. He would have gone to tony private schools. His path in life would have been almost as dissimilar from Trayvon’s as one could imagine.

Yes, Obama’s hypothetical son and Trayvon would have shared the same brown skin color. Would that have made them interchangeable? Not unless all brown-skinned boys are the same. Does the president really believe that?

The president’s remarks created a clear impression that he was motivated by one of two factors, and we can only guess as to which, or what combination of the two, was at work here. One possibility is that this is merely another manifestation of the president’s well-known narcissism.

The other, more troubling possibility is that the president surrendered to his political instincts. …”

“That could have been me and my family in that SUV. Thank you George Zimmerman for helping others. Whether its lifting your voice in protest of unfair treatment of a black homeless man, tutoring underprivileged black kids on weekends, or coordinating a neighborhood watch program, you have shown great character that should serve as an example to others. Thank you George.” … & I second that also…

On May 30th, 2012, CNN reporter Gary Tuchman reported on the Obama eligibility issue for the Anderson Cooper 360 show. (archived here [see link]) In his report, an image of a microfiche copy of a birth certificate was said to be that of Barack Obama’s.

I immediately reported that CNN committed fraud on the American public and showed how it was an impossibility for that microfiche copy of a Long Form Birth Certificate to be Obama’s if his parents were as he stated Barack Obama Sr. and Stanley Ann Dunham.

Also, if CNN had wanted to maintain any sense of journalistic integrity they would not have used a pejorative label in the title of the report to describe a large segment of society merely seeking the truth. Ironically, considering what was being sought was the result of the main stream media not doing their job to begin with.

Tuchman’s report from the very outset was based on falsehoods considering Tuchman claims he found proof of Obama’s birth certificate in Hawaii.

This is interesting because first of all Governor Abercrombie said he was going to release Obama’s LFBC to silence the unending distraction, and then later said he couldn’t find it, all he found was a hand written notation on record at the Hawaii Dept. of Health. How can Tuchman do something that not even the Governor for the State of Hawaii could do?

Secondly, shortly after Tuchman’s original report; Barack Obama announced from the White House press room that he placed a copy of his LFBC on the WH servers. So if Tuchman did in fact find verifiable proof of Obama’s BC, why would Obama still feel the need to commit numerous felonies by placing an irrefutably fraudulent multilayered digital composite to represent a vital record on a government server?

In light of the fact that Obama’s ID’s have now been subjected to the scrutiny of an official law enforcement investigation concluding evidence of fraud and forgery, Tuchman and CNN should not only issue a retraction for their original report, they should finally seek to report the evidence from the investigation’s findings. …”

The attorney general of the United States lied recently to Congress. He said he knew of no citizen’s communications that his department had monitored. Lie!

In fact, Holder knew that his subordinates were targeting reporters. He also did not tell the truth about the New Black Panthers case. He had sworn that there was no political decision to drop the case. Not true; the decision came from the top. He again lied about the time frame in which he first learned of the Fast and Furious case.

The director of national intelligence also lied, likewise while under oath to Congress. At first James Clapper confessed that he had given the “least untruthful” account.

Nixon’s Washington used to call that sort of neat lie “a modified limited hangout.” Later, Clapper admitted that he had just flat-out lied to Congress. Was he disgraced? Fired? Further confirmation of his “largely secular” lie?

Nope. Nothing followed.

Elizabeth Warren simply invented an entire pedigree. That blatant lie helped to earn her a Harvard tenured professorship and a U.S. Senate seat. Ward Churchill was doing well until he dared the country to call out his lies. Who is to say that Warren or Churchill cannot be Native Americans by professing to be Native Americans?

Barack Obama, as is the wont of politicians, has lied a lot — and from the very beginning of his national career. He knew Bill Ayers well, Tony Rezko too. He lied about his decision not to seek the presidency as a newly elected senator, and lied about his willingness to take public campaign financing funds in 2008. He misled about what he would shortly do about most of the Bush-Cheney anti-terrorism protocols. Obama lied about much of his own biography. …”

Again here. That Barry “allowed” that he was born in Kenya is an UNTRUTH. Is it? By what logic does a person of seeming high intelligence “allow” himself to choose which narrative is the lie and which is the truth, in the absence of EVIDENCE (when there’s actually more “evidence” of a Kenyan birth than otherwise)? And again here, where he refers to people as “fringe Birthers.”

President Barack Obama’s choice to be the No. 2 official at the Homeland Security Department is under investigation for his role in helping a company run by a brother of former Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton, The Associated Press has learned.

Alejandro Mayorkas, director of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, is being investigated for his role in helping the company secure an international investor visa for a Chinese executive, according to congressional officials briefed on the investigation. The officials spoke only on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to release details of the investigation.

Mayorkas was named by Homeland Security’s Inspector General’s Office as a target in an investigation involving the foreign investor program run by USCIS, according to an email sent to lawmakers late Monday. The IG’s office said, “At this point in our investigation, we do not have any findings of criminal misconduct.” The email did not specify any criminal allegations it might be investigating.

White House press secretary Jay Carney referred questions to the inspector general’s office, which said that the probe is in its preliminary stage and that it doesn’t comment on the specifics of investigations. …”

Speaking of probes, Anthony Weiner is in the news again. More “sexting” stuff that happened AFTER the last incident.

He’s a joke, but it’s not a funny one. The joke’s on us. I still can’t comprehend what’s going on. Explain Michele Bachmann voting AGAINST stopping the NSA from spying on us. It seems rather obvious that the NSA program has worked well, even better than did those 900 FBI files that the Clintons had.

Weiner and Huma, that’s about as close to Muslim Brotherhood running New York as you could get. Then ,by chance something happens to Weiner(Hillary could give Huma her playbook for that) and his wife replaces him. New York, the pinnacle of everything the Muslim hates, will be ripe for the picking. A muslim’s prize in the US. Those secret Muslim jihad camps in up state New York must be jumping for joy.

I believe that Carlos is a white Jewish hispanic with a white Muslim infiltrator for a wife. Yes, there’s no end to the amount of humiliation one woman will endure when she’s power mad and on a mission from allah. Hillary has trained her minion well. Huma decided it’s “worth staying in this marriage.” YES, INDEED. Well “worth” it, if the MB can have more inroads into our government. As with Hillary, it’s all about sex and all about their marriage. Nope, HUMA. It’s OUR BUSINESS if there’s a pervert leading the largest city in our country. Who, other than other Muslim women, thinks this is a good move for Huma?

“The man who broke the most recent Anthony Weiner sexting scandal said that the embattled New York politician presented his marriage to young women as a sham and even planned to purchase a “secret bunker” in Chicago that could house real-life trysts. …

Weiner’s sexting partner, who began her virtual relationship with Weiner at age 22, felt that the marriage between Weiner and his wife Huma, a former Hillary Clinton aide, was “more of a staged marriage for political gain” and believed that her romance with Weiner would be actualized in a secret condo in Chicago. … Richie indicated that Weiner’s marriage may, in fact, be a political facade. …”

The episodes are on Youtube. Tax dollars at work! Cars look like beaters, don’t they? And if a person of color laughs, it’s cool. They’re making fun of themselves. If a white person laughs, they’re racist, of course.

I found an excellent article, but since truth is, in fact, the new indoctrinated- to- our- marrow “hate speech” I would surely be branded a racist although the author signs off with I am not a racist. It was also posted on one of those totally out there websites, Interesting that another article posted to that site has an almost identical prophetic vision to another blogger/prophetess we know.

This is so funny. He’s found the same pics we have. How to explain those kids, though? Functional hermaphrodite? Makes my head spin. Interesting that he says they photoshop her hands (to clone on female hands?). I speculated long ago that the focus on Mooch’s toned “biceps” was a preemptive strike to “explain” away the obvious; maybe that’s why they also focus on her glamorous “gray” nail polish to make you believe in the lovely (cloned on) hands. Photoshopping the shoulders, too. We’ve seen that also, but had thought it had to do with hiding some kind of injury. She does have manly legs; I never noticed before, but we did point out the bony, sunken chest. I really don’t see how it’s grounds for impeachment if the First Lady isn’t (a “lady”). Who knew about that contraption that transvestites use to hide the package, though? It does appear to be what’s under that blue dress. If not that, then WHAT?

“Look, thank God we live in a free country, and people can opt to be silly and foolish, but that’s a contrast — they go to Cuba, and that’s okay,” Diaz-Balart said Tuesday on the Laura Ingraham radio show.

“They hobnob with the regime; that’s okay. But they won’t go to Florida, where we’re free. That’s their choice, but I think their priorities are a little bit off.””

~~
And the one thing that scares me the most is the NIH and the intricate web of organizations involved and funneled taxpayers money. I came across it a while back when we were sleuthing out the baby brother in Texas as he, too, is involved in this globally.

A violation of the Logan Act…exactly Papoose. He violated the Logan Act but yet was STILL nominated by the DNC. How in any Constitutional republic doe’s that happen? It doesn’t…UNLESS their is an agenda.

Stop and think about this….who was in charge of the F B I when 9 1 1 happened? Who ignored the warnings at the F B I that could have prevented 9 1 1 from happening? Why was the patriot act put into place?

Omigosh, reviewing the O’Neill link reminded me of the agent that reported the flight training and was ignored (Colleen Rowley). Looking that up i came across this, more on O’Neill.

incredible

Earlier today when I reading about the defeat of the NSA spying- it occurred to me this is all contrived going back to the Patriot Act… a long time ago, i believed knowledge of the 911 secrets was the “threat “that permitted the usurpation. Of course, we all know and discussed the obvious about the Cole and Tim Osman..

Papoose, I think you are correct to be turned off about anything “Zionist”. That link includes the following quote:

We can forgive them their ignorance if they haven’t realized yet that the trail they were on was not that of Arab terrorists, but rather Mossad agents impersonating Arab terrorists.

In other words, they want to blame the Jews,
not the Islamic Jihadists.SURE… (/sarc, obviously)

But that doesn’t mean that the link is 100% wrong. There can be nuggets of truth within their overarching lie that Zionist Jews are to blame for 9/11.

I think that there were people in positions of power who had foreknowledge of the attacks and made sure that the agents who were reporting suspicious behavior were “either ignored, threatened, or fired.” But who were those people, and what was their motive? I look at indisputable facts and try to connect the dots in my post here:A Different “9/11 Truth”

Ditto, RP. I take this stuff with a grain of salt. It’s worth reading ALL that’s out there and then coming to your own conclusions. In fact, that’s the way our system is supposed to work (that’s one reason for freedom of speech). It’s how most of us were taught to “think” and “decide” for ourselves, way back in school. Nowadays, they teach conformity of thought. They teach kids NOT to think but to swallow whole the propaganda fed to them and to resist any thoughts to the contrary.

I totally believe that they missed the signals and covered up their incompetency. I cannot believe that John Ashcroft, out of all of them, would have been complicit in any kind of plot such as this story suggests. That’s not to say that he would be included; knowing him, they would have and could have (if it happened) deliberately kept him in the dark.

There are agents and double agents (probably triple agents and more). I’ve had questions about Edmonds/Edmunds. (How DO you spell the name?)

Nothing is EVER as it seems. That said, I totally also believe that there’s SOME TRUTH somewhere that’s being covered up, and it’s likely to be THE REASON, as Papoose says, why we see such complicity going on with the O administration. Blackmail is REAL and it’s in the blood of ANY Chicago thug.

A deeply divided House defeated legislation Wednesday that would have blocked the National Security Agency from collecting vast amounts of phone records, handing the Obama administration a hard-fought victory in the first Congressional showdown over the N.S.A.’s surveillance activities since Edward J. Snowden’s security breaches last month. …

The 205-to-217 vote was far closer than expected and came after a brief but impassioned debate over citizens’ right to privacy and the steps the government must take to protect national security. It was a rare instance in which a classified intelligence program was openly discussed on the House floor, and disagreements over the program led to some unusual coalitions.

Conservative Republicans leery of what they see as Obama administration abuses of power teamed up with liberal Democrats long opposed to intrusive intelligence programs. The Obama administration made common cause with the House Republican leadership to try to block it.

House members pressing to rein in the N.S.A. vowed afterward that the outrage unleashed by Mr. Snowden’s disclosures would eventually put a brake on the agency’s activities. Representative Jerrold Nadler, Democrat of New York and a longtime critic of post-Sept. 11 counterterrorism efforts, said lawmakers would keep coming back with legislation to curtail the dragnets for “metadata,” whether through phone records or Internet surveillance. …”

And so the RINOs hand yet another weapon to the DemoncRATS, snatching (once again) defeat from the jaws of victory. Barry said he’d unite the people and in this case we WERE beginning to be united. And then … For SOME REASON, Bachmann and King voted to KEEP THE SPYING.

Not to worry, Leza. I figured it out. It’s my fault. We have an option to throw into moderation people that we’re wary of. In this case, it was NOT you, but it was the name of someone else who commented here only once. I let that person through moderation but put the “nickname” of the person in the option to always send to moderation before publishing. Well, by happenstance, the nickname of that person was contained within a word in your comment, so that’s why your comment went into moderation. I fixed it. I put that person’s IP# into the “always moderate” option, instead of the nickname. So it’s not that WordPress or anyone else (like me) is targeting you. I’m just glad I figured it out. There’s no way that I can see to make the system focus only on the “NAME” and not on the content of the message.

I’m thinking that another reason why the powers that be suddenly seem to want to tamp down the outrage over the acquittal can be seen in this photo from Houston. A person of color protesting against the New Black Panthers? Marching with whites?
